A team of philosophers and theologians explore how religious traditions from around the world can expand Catholic faith and practices.Placing a focus on dual membership and shared beliefs, this wide-ranging collection connects metaphysical and ethics systems across a range of traditions of faith. Covering Catholicism, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Daoism, it poses and addresses a range of questions: Are the philosophies of other religions consistent with the metaphysics and ethics of Catholicism? Can Catholics consistently belong to other religious traditions while remaining faithfully Catholic? To what extent can beliefs and rites from other religious traditions be incorporated into Catholicism? Each chapter offers optimistic and considered answers.Drawing on analytic epistemology and comparative theology, this timely collection represents the spirit of unity reflected in post-Vatican II Catholicism. With an emphasis on constructive dialogue throughout, it provides essential reading for students and scholars interested in expanding the philosophy of religion and contemporary discussions of faith.
